<h3>Answer: </h3><h2>(D) Insect bites</h2><h3>Explanation:</h3>

From the following risk factors the one that is beyond control is the biting of insects, as one can never have an idea of that. We can take ointments etc for avoiding it but still this is something beyond reach. These insect bites can cause fever, malaria, dengue, fatigue etc which sometimes also becomes the matter of life and death.

Usually, you are able to control your hygiene and nutrition. You can't control whether or not you live in poverty or get insect bites....I'm leaning toward B, although I could be wrong.

Match each mode of transmission with an effective method of blocking it.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

<em><u>Mode of transmission       Method of blocking</u></em>

Indirect Contact -----------→  washing food (A)

Direct Contact -------------→   getting vaccinated (B)

Animal Vector --------------→  using insect repellent (C)

Explanation:

Transmissible infectious diseases are those caused by pathogenic biological agents and can be prevented by preventive measures.

Three forms of contagion are direct contact, indirect contact and vector transmission.

  • <em><u>Direct contact</u></em><em>: occurs with direct exposure to a sick person, their breathing or their secretions. </em>
  • <em><u>Indirect contact</u></em><em>: a sick person contaminates an object or food, which is then handled or consumed by another person, acquiring the disease. </em>
  • <em><u>Vector transmission</u></em><em>: Some insects, such as mosquitoes, carry diseases that can be transmitted through their bite to a healthy person. </em>

Transmission by direct contact can be prevented or blocked by immunization or vaccination. Properly washing food prevents the spread of disease through indirect contact. The use of insect repellent prevents the vector of a disease from spreading it through its bite.

My answer would be C.) Slowly increasing the amount of time spent stretching. 

Because if you do a good amount of stretching per day, while gradually increasing the time spent stretching, then you are bound to become more flexible around the hips :)
